How hot is the ST?



Hi,

I'm new to this list, and I am thinking (very seriously) about getting an
ST. (I currently own a GSX1100EZ and it's time for a new machine...).

I test rode a Daytona last year and it was an excellent ride! However, the
amount of heat coming from the fairing onto the legs was ferocious. I read
that this problem was fixed with the ST. Is this the case? I noticed a
couple of postings today on this list about removing the bottom of the
fairing and that this made the bike cooler to ride (as in heat wise I am
assuming :-).

So what's the story?? I live in Australia, and in summer it gets bloody hot
here. I don't want to purchase something that as a sports *tourer* is not
functional and that cooks my legs.

Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.

cheers,
Grant.
